An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-13710 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Gnu Binutils. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-13710/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-13710/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-13710","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-13710/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-13710","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-13710","GHSA-wq3x-cwmw-cm9j","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-13710"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GNU Binutils BFD library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via a NULL pointer dereference in the BFD library when processing malformed ELF files.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"binutils","vendor":"gnu"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"The setup_group function in elf.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a group section that is too small.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-13710","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"gnu:binutils","products":["gnu:binutils"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-13711"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-13709"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-08-27","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-7614","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-04-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-9939","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-21"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-7226","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-22"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6969","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-19726","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-22"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Binutils: binutils: arbitrary code execution via malformed xcoff object file processing","id":"CVE-2026-6846","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-44840","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via a NULL pointer dereference in the BFD library when processing malformed ELF files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-13710/"}
